I put a green plug on my grandmothers old freezer years ago, and her monthly bill dropped about $60.

Inductive loads would be motors correct? Things like electric water heaters, what would that be?
didnt they stop making those "green plugs" because of the fire risks involved ?
i had a few of them, they arent really anything short of a high current variac/triac circuit.
the ones i had, i modified with better heat sinks to help dissipate the heat.
there was also a "running" voltage calibration control which i set to a lesser voltage than what it was set at, i think 109v from 119.
they work, but dont expect a refrigerator or a/c unit to work any better with it.
they work great for motors, increasing the current supplied if needed, sort of like a regulation circuit, only using needed current to get the "job" done.
